That's how I see him anyway, he has made a few bad calls over the years.
That's not true about Caro. She's far too professional to make up stories from rumours.
As for Barrett that's perhaps another story. But has anyone considered he may actually be right?
Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?
"Caro" and "Professional".......there's two words you don't normally see in the same sentence. I'd describe her more as an "over-embellisher" than a "maker-upperer".

I don't agree with the vast majority of criticism Caro cops, some of the tangents she gets on are over the top but she's the best of a bad lot for mine. It's a sad day for football journalism when Mark Robinson occupies what was the most coveted position.

Barrett is a poor mans Hutchy. I think that says it all!

My problem with Caro is that she has never seemed interested in the football itself. All you ever hear is negativity and politics. Maybe she sees it as the niche she can fill as a football journo, but it really comes across as someone who is simply searching for drama.

Her articles over the past few days have been very positive!

Because that's her role . You've 1000 odd others to report to ask the same questions 10 times or more.

Scotty Gullan ( follows the club) was asked what's the rumblings on a Richter scale.

Perhaps that's the problem......she seeks out drama. Although some would argue she creates the drama.

Does that mean the club needs a bowel movement and it will clear or more serious operation ?

Yeah she probably does on occasions, but in saying that I'd believe her and Patrick Smith's sources ahead of a blow hard like Barrett.

That's a plus then, just some rest from a frustrating season.
